    For Sale What to do

    Back in June your Airmap sold for $150 on eBay. That's your best bet by far I'd say. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lowrance-Airmap-2000/163707155443?hash=item261db4f3f3%3Ag%3AMywAAOSw4wtc6ohz&LH_ItemCondition=3%7C4

    Recommended A&P Southwest Ohio/Northern Kentucky/Southeast Indiana

    There's an A&P in the hangar next to me, but he's in central Ohio. He's building a Sonex, seems popular and friendly but I only just met him so I'm unable to vouch for him. He did bring me a cold beer so he can't be all bad! I can put you in touch if you're interested & PM me.

    For Sale What to do

    I had an Airmap 100 back around 2003 for several years. It was a great little GPS at the time.

    For Sale KT78 Transponder w/ Tray, Encoder & Harness

    Thanks, I found a "great deal" at KOSH: Appareo's ESGi out, Stratus 3i in, USB power ports, 16' RG400 Coax, new ACK encoder, and wiring harness for $3100 out the door. In hindsight I would have skipped the new encoder and Stratus to lower the price. @weirdjim has a great deal going...

    For Sale KT78 Transponder w/ Tray, Encoder & Harness

    Everything you need in a transponder setup except the antenna. This includes a KT78 TSO transponder, tray, ACK Model A-30 encoder, coaxial cable, wiring harness. I got Appareo's ESGi I/O last weekend and preserved the wiring & tray to make it easy to reinstall. Great for experimental or setup...

    Caught on Camera: 172 Lands VFR at Logan International

    Whew I'm exhausted after watching the landing & departure. I've mixed it up with the big boys at a couple of Charlies before but that was next level for a 172.

    Assembled Multitude Advice -- Stratus ESG ADSB

    Aw shoot. I just bought & installed a steal of a deal from Oshkosh for the ESGi I/O with a new encoder & USB power ports "FREE" plus harness for $3100. I'd say it took 2 inexperienced installers 15 man hrs to install. This is a MUCH better deal if you don't want/need the other stuff. Heck I...

    Female pilot suing former employer after being told she's 'too short' to fly; Gloria Allred represen

    NetJets has had some pretty screwed up management in the past. The reviews on Glass Door today are mixed. Interestingly one poster mentioned gender bias being alive and well because it's a Berkshire Hathaway Co.

    C150: A Couple Questions

    I suspect it's just the mocha colored drip from the oil breather line. I keep a piece of cardboard below it in my hangar to catch the drips. But if you want to be done with pushrod leaks, get the REAL Gaskets mod. It adds a spring like the bigger engines and eliminates oil leaks. While...

    Questions about my first Colon Screening

    I had the gallon jug to drink. Here's what I did and subsequently had my wife do with great results: Make sure it's well mixed and cold; Pinch your nose closed then chug as fast as you can. Pretend you're cleanup position on your college fraternity chugging team; Keep nose pinch closed, then...

    Unconventional deck sealing

    Try this again, for the high traffic areas, we bought pressure treated from a big box store - as straight as we could find. Then we stored it in the loft of a barn for about 8 weeks to let it dry before installing. Deck has been done 3 years and no warping of the pine yet. It is due for a...

    Sports Rivalries

    I have flown to West Lafayette for a game a couple years ago. What a GREAT reason to fly. I didn't attend Ohio State but coming from western Mass to central Ohio for college, I had no idea about Michigan/Ohio state so I got interested and Buckeyes are 24/7 around here at (all?) times. Now I...

    Sports Rivalries

    The overall record goes to Michigan at 58-51-6 but I just read this "though Michigan built up a large series lead in the early years of the rivalry when Ohio State was still finding its footing as a program, the record after both teams joined the Big Ten in 1918 is quite close with the Buckeyes...

    Runs out of gas, family sues ATC

    ATC definitely was, but where's the 'at your discretion' part'? I read the transcripts and didn't catch that. At 1559:58 R13 says "seven sierra alpha cleared to tango charlie lima via direct descend and maintain six thousand". Granted I'm a VFR pilot, but if a controller said that to me in...
